Thanks greg for the feedback! I got the idea to put them all in the same
patch from the PatchPhilosophy guide, which suggested combining a bunch
of white space corrections into one commit. But, it sounds like I
misinterpreted what the guide was saying. Maybe if there are identical
warnings, such as "trailing white space" in the driver code, could those
corrections go together in a single patch?
